Things to do

It’s back! The Grand Opera House York is set to reopen next month after an 18 month closure due to the pandemic.

The pandemic has hit the entertainment industry hard, so it is wonderful to see another York theatre finally be able to open its doors again.

And it will be worth the wait – the Grand Opera House York will reopen on Monday 13 September with the frightfully fun The Woman in Black.

Performances will run from 13 to 18 September 2021 and will form part of the UK tour.
